Tips on preparing your story
Do’s
Keep it short. Refine your story to share in 2 minutes or less (approximately 300 words)
Use conversational and non-theological jargon
Simplify your story by limiting the number of names, places and dates
If appropriate, include humor (humor is disarming and increases attention)
Don’ts
Share – don’t preach (Say “I” and “me” not “you”)
Avoid religious language and jargon
Don’t name specific churches, denominations or groups
Explain how Christ is meeting your needs but don’t communicate an end to all struggles
Share how God has blessed you spiritually, not materially
